I know that I had just posted looking for a mech for my CV jt. just recently but now encountered a leak around one of the head gaskets and desperately need someone in the Victoria, B.C. area. There was mention of a guy in Duncan but I'm not sure if that is a risk to try to get to him with this kind of Rad Fluid Leak. I went to see a couple of guys in Victoria but they seem to be ready to suck me dry. This is kind of annoying as I had a rebuilt put in not 2 months ago with new heads, gasket, bearings and so on and I'm really not into doing that again and with it being done by a private mechanic in Vernon, I'm not counting on a huge amount of support from him.

Anyhoo, any thoughts or names of priv mechs in the Victoria area would be great.

 

thanks in advance,

Do you have a shop? If you wanna get your hands dirty I can help. I've done two HG's between my two wagons and they're really not too bad.

First off, make sure it is the HG (compression check for starters and you can pull the plugs and look into the cylinders for coolant if it's really bad).

If you're just going through coolant, it could be an intake manifold.

If you're sure, do you know which side?

Hope for the passenger side...

shoot me some more details and maybe I can help out.
